Paul Remembers His Visit

You yourselves know, dear brothers and sisters, that our visit to you was not a failure.

Don’t you remember, dear brothers and sisters, how hard we worked among you? Night and day we toiled to earn a living so that we would not be a burden to any of you as we preached God’s Good News to you.

But now Timothy has just returned, bringing us good news about your faith and love. He reports that you always remember our visit with joy and that you want to see us as much as we want to see you.

For you remember what we taught you by the authority of the Lord Jesus.
